Does trying to insult me make you feel better about yourself? Great. I didnt say you where wrong nor was I. I said coming into the conversation we didnt understand what each other meant. There is no need to try an insult me, If you felt like trying to teach me/ Help me understand something there is much better ways to do so since helping others is what this forum is about. Like i said we had two differnt versions of "power on demand"

Your an idiot. Have you even driven a trubo charged car? Ever heard of turbo lag? A super charged car has no lag, Motor spins the belt car its more power instantly. A turbo waits for exhaust gasses to spin it up and takes time to do so.

Lag depends on the size of a turbo. The guy that tuned my s2000 has an autocross specific MR2 spyder. His turbo setup has full spool at idle.

If srs, then it means that the desired boost/tuned boost is achieved at xxx rpm. In the case of that MR2, full boost (or full spool) is achieved at 900 rpm or so (turbo is a Gt22 I believe with a few minor modifications.)

Original motor. Not sure why the MR2. He has a boosted s2000 for road racing, but the MR2 is for autocross. I guess the MR layout is better, but honestly, I'm not sure I believe the GT22 is most commonly used on high power snowmobiles and bikes (like a Hayabusa.)

Your friend doesn't have full spool at 900 Rpms. That's a load of horse ****.

First, he is not my friend. I met him once when he tuned my s2000. He had his s2000 and his MR2 in the shop under covers, and while we were hooking my car up I was asking him about his cars. Maybe it wasn't 900rpm but 1500 I don't remember. This was YEARS ago. Maybe he said "right near idle" and not "idle". What I do remember is that he was running an EXTREMELY small turbo. He was regarded as the best Emanage tuner in the country, and was booked for over a year in advance. All the biggest tuners in the country, including Jeff Evans sent people to him for tuning on piggybacks they couldn't do.
